i battle several snack attacks throughout the day.
my prescription?
animal-friendly treats, of course =).
when my pantry is stocked, a typical day could unfold like this:
when my pantry is stocked, a typical day could unfold like this:
spelt cakes with sunflower pesto and cashew cheese may start the day...
which then might lead to raw pizza with sprouts...
(i find banana, apple, kale, and lemon make a sweet skittles-tasting smoothie!)
while another peek in the pantry might fold into nori-sheet munchin'..
i chomp on them whole, just like that!
organic oranges
i think it's just a phase, and i'm sure it will pass. i also received cacao powder with my sirova order today, so i'll soon be able to get that chocolate craving in check! =)
what are your favorite "good" snacks/"bad" snacks?
oh i hope the cacao helps you! make your own treats! once you've had real cacao you won't want to go back!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos & I agree with bitt of raw about cacao. It's just a matter of keeping the treats on hand :-)
ReplyDeleteNice post! I find the 70% cacao chocolates helpful. anything after that would be too sweet to handle! I also have lots of fruits all the time, just in case I have a sugar madness LOL!
ReplyDeleteI love flax crackers & celery sticks with zucchini hummus or nacho dip. And bananas. I eat so many bananas. And I also keep a chocolate snack on hand at all times, either fudge or chocolate chia pudding, or a chocolate cake. All raw of course :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking to us, you're awesome! I too love to chomp on whole nori sheets :) So satisfying! Let's see, what else... I love quick chia puddings. I just swallow them in their liquid without giving them a chance to swell up. Also, chocolate, of course, goji berries, and sometimes dried fruits. Oh yea! Lara Bars and Pure Bars! So good :)
ReplyDeleteyou guys gave me great snack ideas. thanks! =) sometimes i need to be reminded of the obvious, like a banana makes an excellent snack. methinks banana with chocolate sauce will undoubtedly curb those candy bar cravings! =)
ReplyDeleteWonderful snacks! Some days I just have 4 or 5 snacks rather than actual meals:)
ReplyDeleteA few favorites...dried figs, cinnamon sprinkled apples, raspberries by the handful, and Medjools stuffed with a Brazil nut:)
thanks evergreen. me too! =) your favorite snacks sound delish, especially the stuffed medjools!!!
ReplyDeleteOh no!
ReplyDeleteI'll save you! Da da da da!
